Bottle opener

Topology optimized – 3d printed bottle opener

The challenge of this task is to create a bottle opener that can be printed using PLA and function nominally. The goal is to use this task to become more familiar with FEA (Finite Element Analysis), Topology optimization and the design process for polymer additive manufacturing. The result is a 3d printed, topology and FEA optimized bottle opener that snap-fits onto the cheap screwdriver that ships with the Creality brand Ender 3d printers.
